farpha-tools is a collection of utilities for cybersecurity teams and CTF players, that I also personally use.

Endpoint: /lookupIP/{IP}

• Example: https://tools.farpha.com/lookupIP/8.8.8.8

This endpoint performs an IP lookup using the api.findip.net service, retrieves detailed information, parses it into a shorter, more user-friendly format, and adds a clickable Google Maps link for the location.

Endpoint: /defangIP/{IP}

• Example: https://tools.farpha.com/defangIP/8.8.8.8

This endpoint defangs the provided IP address by replacing dots with [.].

Endpoint: /defangURL

• Example: https://tools.farpha.com/defangURL?url=https://google.com

This endpoint defangs the provided URL by replacing dots with [.] and converting http to hxxp.

Below is a diagram illustrating how the IP lookup process works:
